Study Notes
Consumer Behaviour - Client Typology
- Client typology is a core element for effective customer segmentation.
- Current marketing strategies often fail to identify key characteristics of various customer types.
- This presentation highlights the need to understand different client typologies, especially in sports marketing.
Index for Consumer Behaviour - Client Typology
- The subject matter includes detailed learning objectives, such as understanding client typology and introduction.
- Key topics within client typology cover reference groups, including aspirations, dissociations, and types of influence.
- Class and social status are also essential elements in client typology.
- These diverse topics are discussed in the context of a 4.0 marketing environment.
- The conclusion and relevant bibliographic references are included.
Key Concepts and Influences on Consumer Behaviour
- Consumer behaviour is deeply influenced by social groups, including individuals' need to belong and be accepted.
- The presentation emphasizes how people readily modify behaviour to gain group acceptance and social standing.
- The acquisition of products often has a strong social component; it helps individuals establish belonging and social standing within a group.
Reference Groups
- Individuals form relationships with various social groups, some more significant than others.
- Reference groups act as models or patterns, influencing values, attitudes, tastes, and behaviour of individuals.
- Reference groups can be real or imaginary people or groups.
- Reference groups shape and determine group membership and social standing.
Types of Reference Groups
- Reference groups have different types of influence on consumer behavior.
- Informative influence: Individuals look to groups for reliable or relevant information to make informed purchase choices.
- Utilitarian influence: Individuals want to gain rewards (like acceptance or status) or avoid punishments (like rejection).
- Value-expressive influence: Individuals seek to improve their self-image by aligning their behaviour with that of reference groups.
Aspiration Groups
- Consumers form aspiration groups to improve their self, social and economic standing in life.
- Consumers identify with groups they don't currently belong to, but want to be part of.
- Aspiration groups profoundly influence consumer behaviour.
Dissociation Groups
- Dissociation groups represent groups an individual actively avoids to avoid group rejection.
- These groups, or negative reference groups, exert a strong influence on behaviour; acting as models of what not to do.
Class and Social Status
- Social status heavily influences consumer behavior.
- Consumers compare themselves with peers to establish their own social standing and purchasing power.
- Wealth, position, power, prestige are major criteria to evaluate social status.
Product Positioning
- Companies strategically position products based on consumers' desire for status to build strong market demand.
- Products are positioned to communicate social identity.
- Price and other aspects are also adjusted according to the product positioning.
Influence Factors for Reference Groups
- Consumer behaviour isn't equally affected by all reference groups; various factors play a role.
- Experience: Previous experience with a product makes repeat purchases easier.
- Credibility: Consumers are more likely to trust information presented credibility than advertising material.
- Personality: Self-assured individuals may be less swayed by reference groups than those with lower self-esteem.
- Risk: Higher-risk products tend to have greater influence from trusted referents.
- Information: Ease of accessing information impacts the influence of reference groups.
Conclusion and Bibliographic References
- Successful marketing relies on understanding a deep understanding of consumer behavior, reference groups, and social status.
- The use of reference groups is evident in numerous marketing strategies, including sports marketing.
- A valuable source for understanding social class is Coleman (1983).
